The Mets optioned Suero to Triple-A Syracuse on Sunday.

Suero joined the big-league club Friday after being claimed off waivers from Atlanta on Thursday. He'll now head to Syracuse without making his Mets debut. The 33-year-old reliever logged a 1.35 ERA in 46.2 innings with Atlanta's Triple-A affiliate earlier this season.

The Mets reinstated Garrett (elbow) from the 15-day injured list Sunday.

Garrett had been on the shelf since Aug. 25 due to inflammation in his right elbow. The 32-year-old reliever has been cleared to rejoin the active roster after a brief minor-league rehab assignment, during which he threw a scoreless inning with one strikeout for Double-A Binghamton. Garrett has a 3.61 ERA in 52.1 innings with the Mets this season.

Ramirez went 1-for-3 with a double, a stolen base, a run scored and was hit by a pitch in Saturday's 3-2 win over the Rays.

The Guardians made Shane Baz pay for the HBP in the fourth inning, as Ramirez stole second base and scored Cleveland's first run. The stolen base was his first in 16 games and 37th of the season, putting him within reach of a second consecutive campaign with at least 40 steals.

The Mets selected Sproat's contract from Triple-A Syracuse ahead of his scheduled start Sunday in Cincinnati.

Sproat becomes the Mets' third major prospect to join the rotation after Jonah Tong and Nolan McLean both received call-ups in recent weeks. The 24-year-old Sproat isn't guaranteed any starts beyond Sunday, but with Kodai Senga now at Triple-A, the Mets have room for the right-hander if they elect to maintain a six-man rotation heading into the upcoming week.

The Twins recalled Ohl from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday, Aaron Gleeman of The Athletic reports.

Ohl was called up for his MLB debut in late August and had a 5.66 ERA, 1.60 WHIP and 16:5 K:BB over 20.2 innings (seven appearances) before being sent back to Triple-A. The right-hander is now back in the big leagues and is likely to operate as a long reliever.

Tauchman (soreness) will start in right field and bat leadoff in Sunday's game against Detroit.

Tauchman will return to the lineup for the first time since Tuesday, after general soreness had kept him out of commission for a few days. The veteran outfielder should continue to set the table for the White Sox against right-handed pitching, though he'll likely be held out of the starting nine versus most left-handed pitchers.

Basallo (hand) is out of the lineup for Sunday's game against the Dodgers.

The 20-year-old departed Saturday's game after taking a foul tip off his right hand. X-rays on his hand came back negative, so it appears Basallo won't miss extended time. Alex Jackson will step in behind the dish Sunday.

Hays went 1-for-4 with a solo home run in Saturday's 6-3 win over the Mets.

Hays swatted his 14th homer in the fourth inning, finishing off a stretch in which the Reds homered in three consecutive innings. It was his third homer in the last six games to go along with seven RBI during that stretch. Injuries impacted Hays' availability earlier this season, but he's tied for third on the team in home runs and alone in third in RBI (61) over 90 games.

The Twins recalled McCusker from Triple-A St. Paul on Sunday, Phil Miller of The Minnesota Star Tribune reports.

McCusker will join the 28-man active roster as a replacement for catcher Ryan Jeffers (concussion), who was placed on the 7-day injured list. The 27-year-old outfielder has slashed .246/.316/.479 with 22 home runs and five stolen bases in 434 plate appearances with St. Paul this season.

The Twins placed Jeffers on the 7-day injured list Sunday with a concussion.

Jeffers took a foul tip off the mask Thursday and had been held out of the lineup for Minnesota's ensuing two games. With the backstop now having been diagnosed with a concussion, he won't be eligible to rejoin the Twins until next Friday. Mickey Gasper and Jhonny Pereda will serve as the Twins' options behind the plate while both Jeffers and Christian Vazquez (shoulder) are on the shelf.
